Niels Lohmann c391abccb1 Lock a FILE once per parse instead of once per character
Parsing from a FILE* reads one character at a time with std::fgetc, which
locks and unlocks the FILE object for every character. file_input_adapter
now locks the file once when it is created and unlocks it when it is
destroyed - also when parsing throws - and reads with the unlocked stdio
functions in between: flockfile/getc_unlocked/funlockfile with glibc,
Apple, Android, and the BSDs, and _lock_file/_fgetc_nolock/_unlock_file
with the Microsoft C runtime. Other C libraries keep std::fgetc. The lock
is recursive, so fread() in the binary readers and stdio calls of a SAX
handler or parser callback on the same thread keep working.

On an Apple M1 Max, parsing from a FILE* is 2.9 to 4.0 times as fast
(twitter.json 14.3 -> 4.1 ms, citm_catalog.json 35.4 -> 8.8 ms); with
glibc, whose locking is cheaper, 1.1 to 1.3 times. The values and the
position of the file after parsing are unchanged.

Other threads that use the same FILE object now wait until parsing is
done instead of interleaving their reads with the parser's.
JSON_DISABLE_UNLOCKED_FILE_IO restores std::fgetc, for programs in which a
SAX handler waits for another thread that uses the same FILE. The new
tests check from a second thread that the lock is released after success
and after a parse error, and run again with the macro.
